The accuracy of ozone sensitivity coefficients estimated with HDDM (High-order Decoupled Direct Method) can vary depending on the $NO_x$ (Nitrogen Oxides) and VOC (Volatile Organic Compound) conditions. In order to evaluate the applicability of HDDM over the Seoul Metropolitan Area (SMA) during a high ozone episode in 2007 June, we compare BFM (Brute Force Method) and HDDM in terms of the $1^{st}$-order ozone sensitivity coefficient to explain ozone change in response to changes in NOx and VOC emissions, and the $2^{nd}$-order ozone sensitivity coefficient to represent nonlinear response of ozone to the emission changes. BFM and HDDM estimate comparable ozone sensitivity coefficients, exhibiting similar spatial and temporal variations over the SMAduring the episode. NME (Normalized Mean Error) between BFM and HDDM for the episode average $1^{st}$- and $2^{nd}$-order ozone sensitivity coefficients to NOx and VOC emissions are less than 3% and 9%, respectively. For the daily comparison, NME for the $1^{st}$- and $2^{nd}$-order ozone sensitivity coefficients are less than 4% ($R^2$ > 0.96) and 15% ($R^2$ > 0.90), respectively. Under the emission conditions used in this study, two methods show negative episode average $1^{st}$-order ozone sensitivity coefficient to $NO_x$ emissions over the core SMA. The $2^{nd}$-order ozone sensitivity coefficient to $NO_x$ emissions leads ozone to respond muchnonlinear to the reduction in $NO_x$ emissions over Seoul. Nonlinear ozone response to reduction in VOC emissions is mitigated due to the $2^{nd}$-order ozone sensitivity coefficient which is much smaller than the $1^{st}$-order ozone sensitivity coefficient to the emissions in the magnitude.

In this paper, we present a new methodology to analyze the characteristic of artery by using 4 channels photoplethysmograpy. The proposed parameter is a time difference of pulse transit time(PTT) between Pulse waves at finger site and at toe site. To verify the usefulness of the developed system volume pulse waves on 4 sites were measured simultaneously for total 51 normal subjects (male 26 and female 25) aged from 9 to 83 years old. And then correlations between the analysis parameters and age were evaluated by using linear regression analysis method. As the result of experiments, the change of parameter was found according to ages. The result of regression analysis about relationships between the parameter and ages for n=51, the coefficient of correlation of non-normalized data has 0.79770 in left side and 0.80599 in right side and the coefficient of correlation of normalized data by height has 0.81345 in left side and 0.81605 in right side.

This paper presents a hybrid recognition method, which is based on the nonlinear histogram equalization and the multidimensional intensity variation of an images. The nonlinear histogram equalization based on a adaptively modified function is applied to improve the quality by adjusting the brightness of the image. The multidimensional intensity variation by considering the a extent of 4-step changes in brightness between the adjacent pixels is also applied to reflect accurately the attributes of image. The statistical correlation that is measured by the normalized cross-correlation(NCC) coefficient, is applied to comprehensively measure the similarity between the images. The NCC is considered by the intensity variation of each 2-direction(x-axis and y-axis) image. The proposed method has been applied to the problem for recognizing the 50-face images of 40*40 pixels. The experimental results show that the proposed method has a superior recognition performances to the method without performing the histogram equalization, or the linear histogram equalization, respectively.

This paper presents a hybrid method for improving the recognition performance, which is based on the nonlinear histogram equalization, features extraction, and statistical correlation of images. The nonlinear histogram equalization based on a logistic function is applied to adaptively improve the quality by adjusting the brightness of the image according to its intensity level frequency. The statistical correlation that is measured by the normalized cross-correlation(NCC) coefficient, is applied to rapidly and accurately express the similarity between the images. The local features based on independent component analysis(ICA) that is used to calculate the NCC, is also applied to statistically measure the correct similarity in each images. The proposed method has been applied to the problem for recognizing the 30-face images of 40*50 pixels. The experimental results show that the proposed method has a superior recognition performances to the method without performing the preprocessing, or the methods of conventional and adaptively modified histogram equalization, respectively.

Recently, the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) announced four cryptographic algorithms as a standard candidates of Post-Quantum Cryptography (PQC). In this paper, we show that private key can be exposed by a non-profiling-based power analysis attack such as Correlation Power Analysis (CPA) and Differential Deep Learning Analysis (DDLA) on CRYSTALS-KYBER algorithm, which is decided as a standard in the PKE/KEM field. As a result of experiments, it was successful in recovering the linear polynomial coefficient of the private key. Furthermore, the private key can be sufficiently recovered with a 13.0 Normalized Maximum Margin (NMM) value when Hamming Weight of intermediate values is used as a label in DDLA. In addition, these non-profiling attacks can be prevented by applying countermeasures that randomly divides the ciphertext during the decryption process and randomizes the starting point of the coefficient-wise multiplication operation.

A number of different methods have been used for modeling the sorption of volatile organic chlorinated compounds such as tetrachloroethylene/perchloroethylene (PCE). In this study, PCE was adsorbed in several natural sorbents, i.e., Pahokee peat, vermicompost, BionSoil^®, and natural soil, in the batch experiments. Several sorption models such as linear, Freundlich, solubility-normalized Freundlich model, and Polanyi-Manes model (PMM) were used to analyze sorption isotherms. The relationship between sorption model parameters, organic carbon content (f_oc), and elemental C/N ratio was studied. The organic carbon normalized partition coefficient values (log K_oc = 1.50-3.13) in four different sorbents were less than the logarithm of the octanol-water partition coefficient (log K_ow = 3.40) of PCE due to high organic carbon contents. The log K_oc decreased linearly with log f_oc and log C/N ratio, but increased linearly with log O/C, log H/C, and log (N+O)/C ratio. Both log K_F,oc or log K_F,oc decreased linearly with log f_oc (R² = 0.88-0.92) and log C/N ratio (R² = 0.57-0.76), but increased linearly with log (N+O)/C (R² = 0.93-0.95). The log q_max,oc decreased linearly as log f_oc and log C/N increased, whereas it increased with log O/C, log H/C and log (N+O)/C ratios. The log q_max,oc increased linearly with (N+O)/C indicating a strong dependence of q_max,oc on the polarity index. The results showed that PCE sorption behaviors were strongly correlated with the physicochemical properties of soil organic matter (SOM).

The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), which is working on the Post-Quantum Cryptography (PQC) standardization project, announced four algorithms that have been finalized for standardization. In this paper, we demonstrate through experiments that private keys can be exposed by Correlation Power Analysis (CPA) and Differential Deep Learning Analysis (DDLA) attacks on polynomial coefficient-wise multiplication algorithms that operate in the process of generating signatures using CRYSTALS-Dilithium algorithm. As a result of the experiment on ARM-Cortex-M4, we succeeded in recovering the private key coefficient using CPA or DDLA attacks. In particular, when StandardScaler preprocessing and continuous wavelet transform applied power traces were used in the DDLA attack, the minimum number of power traces required for attacks is reduced and the Normalized Maximum Margines (NMM) value increased by about 3 times. Conseqently, the proposed methods significantly improves the attack performance.

The study reports on the design and performance of two air-filled and two partial ethanol-filled photonic crystal fiber (PCF) structures with a tetra core for supercontinuum generation. The PCFs are nonlinear with ultra-flattened zero dispersion. Holes with smaller areas are used to create a tetra-core PCF structure. Ethanol is filled in the holes of smaller area while the larger holes of cladding region are airfilled. Optical properties including dispersion, effective mode area, confinement loss, normalized frequency, and nonlinear coefficient of the designed PCF structures are investigated via full vector finite difference time domain (FDTD) method. A PCF structure with lead silicate as wafer exhibits significantly better results than a PCF structure with silica as wafer. However, both structures report dispersion at a telecommunication wavelength corresponding to 1.55 ㎛. Furthermore, the PCF structure with lead silicate as wafer exhibits a very high nonlinear coefficient corresponding to 1375 W^-1 km^-1 at the same wavelength. This scheme can be used for optical communication systems and in optical devices by exploiting the principle of nonlinearity.

Several researchers have developed a number of theoretical time factors to determine the coefficient of consolidation by biezocone excess pore water dissipation test in soft clay deposits. However, depending on the assumptions and analytical techniques, the estimated coefficient of consolidation could be in a considerably wide range even for a specific degree of consolidation. These solutions are obtained from an initial excess porewater pressure distribution which can be determined from. either the cavity expansion theory or the strain path method. The 야ssipation of the initial excess porelvater pressure has been usally simulated by means of linear-uncoupled consolidation analysis and then the dissipation curve is normalized by the initial excess porewater pressure for easy use. However. since there is no guidelines or rules on which method gives the best solution for obtaining the coefficient of consolidation from the dissipation curve, the final selection was only based on engineer's extrience and Judgements. Thus, such an arbitrary selection might be inappropriate for a specific site to characterize the consolidation behavior. In this paper, we reviewed various theoretical time factors and, based on this consideration, we mentioned needs for researches in selecting a specific solution that is compatible for Korean clays. Also we listed some source of errors that can be encountered in the procedure of dissipation analysis.
